At the beginning of this year, the new guy at work needed a place to live. I ended up letting him sublet one of the rooms in my house. After only a couple of days it became obvious that he is totally insane. The crazy constantly flows from his mouth and is just way too good to not share with the world. Names have been changed to protect the innocent, but other than that - all of the conversations are damn near verbatim.

The Tron Project - DAY 6

We have a nibble!! Two Trons and 6 days later, we're starting to get some reaction from P. Just when I was starting to believe that I would need to start taking lithium to continue the experiment, P has begun making what I can only describe as "dog jerks it's head after hearing something" movements when the Tron chirps. The P is confused. Looking to me for a reaction, and of course finding none, P returns to his video game after each chirp. Well done Tron, well done. To avoid scaring off P, I've deactivated the Trons until tomorrow when after their rest, they will return to full annoyance levels.

In addition to Tron success, the P was gracious enough to reveal another one of his superpowers to a group of us today at lunch.

P: You know, being able to move things with your mind, it's real.Me: Ok. Here's my drink, dude, move it.P: Well, I can't do that, all I can do is make small clouds dissappear.Me: That has got to be the coolest superpower I've ever heard of. Do it! Do it!R: There's no clouds.J: Damn, you are good.
